Extra Video Notes:
0) Yes, step zero. MAKE SURE you don't have any vacuum leaks before tuning idle.
1) PID values in the idle settings could have a video of their own, the coverage was very brief here. See tuning manuals for more information.
2) An alternative to unplugging the ISCV valve during idle screw setting is to lower idle to 0% duty in the tuning software.
3) In the MEITE idle settings there's something called "PID Deadband" that can be very useful. If you're using closed loop, and have issue with idle hunting but only by 50-100RPM, try increasing the Deadband to a larger value. This is the amount of error (Target RPM vs Actual RPM) that's allowed by the ECU where it will not attempt to chase the target. So if your target is 850RPM, and your engine is idling at 900RPM, with a Deadband setting of 50RPM, it will not attempt to chase it down to 850.
5) If you have a 1990-1993 (1.6L) Federal car, or 1990-1992 California car, it runs what's called batch fuel injection. This is where #1/3 and #2/4 fuel injectors fire simultaneously. You may notice, especially with larger injectors, that idle AFR needs to be in the 13's to be stable, this is normal. Alternatively, you can add 2 wires between your fuel rail and ECU to set up sequential injection. You need 1 signal wire per injector to do this (Early cars had 1 signal per 2 injectors.)
6) There is a lot that goes into this simple seeming topic. It can be harder even than cruise tuning or WOT tuning at times. If you guys have any pro tips you've learned from experience, drop them in the comments!
